My view is different. Public Relations are a key component of any operation in this day of instant communications and rightly inquisitive citizens. – Alvin Adams

People who worked with me or knew me still called me the \’world\’s fastest human\’ because I almost never stopped. I\’d found that I could get more done with no regular job or regular hours at all, but by being on my own, flying to speak here, help with a Public Relations campaign for some client there, tape my regular jazz radio show one morning at 5:00 a.m. before leaving on a plane for another city or another continent three hours later to preside over a major sporting event. – Jesse Owens
